My possible Power of three entry, two samurai swords at the front so it looks a samurai look-a-like, its properly irl but will see.



two rear spikes to prevent it from flipping on top of its back.

The rear weapons are unecessary, but other than that, it looks cool. :bigsmile:

That's certainly IRL so you're fine there.
Not a fan of the iron on top (a shorter spike would look better I feel) and the skin's a little dodgy but otherwise pretty nice.

Just wanted to say I really enjoy your use of dead web hosting providers as your robots' sponsors.

Also, FWIW I think the IRL-ish designs you have don't look that bad, but maybe I'm just saying that with a very circa-2003 mindset. I just think it's amusing that the community has re-attached itself to the notion of IRL robots after a long period of "let's see how many maces I can put on this robot".
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

it's a bit messy and there's some empty space. you can strengthen these stabilizer sheets as well.

Okay... Interesting.

Firstly, you do not need all those batteries. 1 for each spin motor and an extra for good luck should you have the weight is sufficient.
Use Multi-Extenders rather than Baseplate Anchors inside.
Having the chassis tilted back like that will make steering worse than if it was straight - something to consider, you may want to move the motor up.
The wheel choice is a bit meh but that's not major.
Finally, if this is IRL, I'd never accept it into a tourney because that is a LOT of weight being supported by 2 very very thin steel sheets. If it wouldn't be done in real life, it's not IRL.
